cloudflare name servers

cephalophore · Dec 1, 2022

cloudflare give me emma.ns.cloudflare.com lee.ns.cloudflare.com for name servers but same with all domains in my account. any way to change the name servers to other ones, like etienne.ns.cloudflare.com andy.ns.cloudflare.com?

Why would you want to change them?

You can get other names if you register new account.

Or you can just look up for their names online and then use those as your DNS servers..

The only way to do that is to use separate Cloudflare accounts.

yes i have all sites in 1 account so it can be a footprint if all have same name servers?

Man, millions of sites behind Cloudflare have the same name servers. Why would it matter?

Dont worry about it too much, it cant be a fingerprint.

yes, you can change the nameservers by creating new account (with new email) and adding domain(s) to it. All domains under one user account has similar nameservers. So if you want 5 different nameservers, open 5 accounts. Also note that you can't choose those nameservers. They will be randomly assigned. So if you are lucky you might get andy.ns.cloudflare.com or some other nameserver from 1000s of them.

No.

1. Cloudflare free plans doesn't allow to change Nameservers even if you have many domains in the same account will remain the same NS.
2. The only way to do that, is creating new account
3. The best way to avoid creating new account, the only way to get different NS is Custom NS from Cloudflare their paid plans check HERE

That are the only ways to have different NS. Cloudflare allows you to have your custom dns with paid plans.

i simply choose 2 of the listed name servers from the list lucky sparks give, and it works fine. any combination seems working

I'm about to try this as well. Theoretically doable though.

Wrong? Then do a custom domain like hellomydomain.ns.cloudflare.com

those are anycast nameservers, so any name will from the list is applicable. but one should only use nameservers assigned to their account.

The DNS works fine. However, if you do some NS checks, you'll see the two NS servers which assigned to your account. Which means, method failed.
